nope, it's an online ad business, mostly responsible for making all those ad slots.

But they do foster a one-party industry that controls all aspects of said industry, leaving no room for competitive pricing, and competition, period.

Google is big, and keeps getting bigger. Good for us that Google is raiding only the most serious parts of the web. If not, we could be in grave danger.

thats what everyone trys to do in capitalism.

but its impossible, even if this merger happens and they make alot of money, that won't happen.

and if it does, its not the end of the world.

That is correct but as there will be no competiotion there will be no reason for them to lower prices.
The stuff about the inflation can happen but it has never happened due to monopoly before, losing a war can cause that quite easily though, in germany after WW1 a pice of bread costed at some point 28000000000 D-mark. Another time somewhere in south-america a dude went down to the store with a wheelbarrow full of money to buy some food but someone robbed him and took the wheelbarrow but left the money.

if they keep prices the same, nothing happens.
